Abstract

A heat engine enclosed in a housing has two zones maintained at different temperatures. The first zone ("hot zone") receives heat energy from an external power source. The second zone ("cold chamber zone") is connected to the hot zone by two conduits, such that a fluid (e.g., air, water, or any other gas or liquid) filling the two zones can circulate between the two zones. The expansion of the fluid in the hot zone and the compression of the fluid in the cold zone drive a turbine to provide a power output. The fluid may be pressurized to enhance efficiency. In one embodiment, the turbine propels an axle in a rotational motion to transmit the power output of the heat engine to an electrical generator outside of the heat engine's housing. In one embodiment, the turbine includes a first set of blades and a second set of blades located in the hot zone and the cold zone, respectively. The blades may each have a flat profile having two unequal surfaces, such that the turbine rotates in preferentially in one direction.
